Hybrid Carbon Fibers/Carbon Nanotubes Structures for Next Generation Polymeric Composites

Pitch-based carbon fibers are commonly used to produce polymeric carbon fiber structural composites. Several investigations have reported different methods for dispersing and subsequently aligning carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a filler to reinforce polymer matrix. The significant difficulty in dispersi...
